Coolangatta Nannies

Hi Mums and Dads,
My name is Rachel and have been nannying for the last year for a family that is expecting another child in the next few months. Due to this I will be seeking further employment in the childcare industry. My current nannying position requires me to take one child to and from school (prep age, I also looked after this child last year) I then continue the day caring for a 18 month old. We go out to parks and do lots of craft and playing throughout the day. I also cook meals and clean up the house. My current hours are 7am-6pm, 2 days a week. But I am flexible to change these times to suit your family. I am great with children and next year going to start my studies as a midwife. At current, I have done a year of nursing which has provided me with CPR and first aid experience. I also have a blue card and police background checks.
Looking forward to becoming a part of your family and giving your child/children the care they need.
Can't wait to hear from you!

Hi there,
I am a proud mother of two gorgeous teenage boys. Children have always been my passion and I have been a primary school teacher for the last 8 years. I adore teaching and learning with children however I am interested in caring for younger children, during their first and hugely important years. I have cared for many children of friends and family in an informal way and am commonly known as "The Baby Whisperer". I love to shower children with love and cuddles and my nature is warm and nurturing. I am energetic, creative, honest and responsible and know that caring for children is an absolute privilege.

Child Care Background:
During high school I did baby siting for 4yrs casual for two separate families. I also have working as a learn to surf instructor mainly dealing with the younger children's groups. After high school i moved to the United Kingdom for 1 year to work in a boarding school for the haring impaired, this job opportunity helped me discover how much i loved working with children and wanted to make it into a care for myself.
Currently I am studying to be a Primary and Secondary Teacher at Southern Cross University. While studying I am looking for part time while I'm studying but happy to help out as much is needed.
I am a very enthusiastic and reliable person who is active and loves the out doors. I am also a patrolling member at Currumbin SLSC and extremely surf safe and love the ocean.
As well as this i am a very clean and tidy person who has plenty of enough experience in the kitchen and using an ironing board so any addition work around the house i am willing to do.

I’m a 22 years old girl from Andorra (a small country between France and Spain). I’m an engineer that usually worked as a mathematics and physics teacher. I’ve just arrived in Australia looking for a fresh start. Now, I can choose what I want and it is carrying and teaching kids. I have two swiss nephews and I love to be with them. I usually look after them when my brother and sister in law are out for dinner or on weekend trip. I’m very responsible, affective, clever, polite and organized.
When I played violin in the National Orchestra of Andorra, I developed a strong work ethic and passion in what I'm doing. Also, I learned about partnership, discipline and how to work in a team.
I’ve always been a girl focused in studies. I’ve studied industrial engineering where I built my capacity of solving problems. During my studies, I've worked in different fields as fluid mechanics, telecommunications, programming and designs, for example.
Now, I am in Australia (Gold Coast, Coolangatta) doing a Sport course (another field that seduces me). During my bachelor’s degree I’ve worked hard, and I didn’t have enough time to do what I love. I like being and sharing with people, to learn from the experts, photography, teaching, to play music, organize and the most important, new opportunities what is really related to have new objectives.

Recently I have been doing after school care at Murwillimbah and Tweed for children whos parents work late or have other responsibilities. I have really been enjoying my role and the kids seem to love me being an active younger male role model.

I am a qualified Chiropractor and Kinesiologist that has recently relocated from Sydney. I have had 6 years experience as a nanny and over 13 years experience as a babysitter. During university I worked as a nanny with 3 different families, each for 12 months or longer. The first family had 5 children ranging from 9 months old to 10 years, the second family had 3 children aged 6, 8 and 10 and the last family I with had a 6 year old and a 9 year old.
While at University I also tutored high school students in Maths and English.
I am extremely reliable, trustworthy and believe that open communication is essential when working with a family. I am confident in looking after children of all ages and find it extremely rewarding.
I enjoy challenging myself and growing as an individual so I have decided to spend some time out of my personal business. Over the last 5 years I have built a successful practice in Sydney but I have decided to move away from a busier lifestyle to one that better suits my personality. I am looking forward to returning to nannying and becoming a part of a new family environment.

Hi there,
I have experience with my own family (3 sisters) as well as casual sitting for family friends and I am a osteopathic masters student who is interested in paediatrics. I have my current working with children's check, first aid, all vaccinations, driver's licence and recommendations. I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi my name is Courtney, I'm 21 and newly married.
My husband is an engineer whilst I do volunteer work but he's currently working on a new project that's going to take a while so I would like to help contribute in the meantime.
I currently live in Coolangatta and I have a car.
When I was younger I volunteered at a childcare, then was a nanny for a family with 4 kids. Then done regular babysitting jobs for 3 year old Autistic girl.
I've done many cleaning jobs and done a diploma in Beauty Therapy.
My most recent job was for a homeschooled 7 year old who I would look after on a causal basis.
I've always loved hanging out with kids & enjoy caring for them.
Looking for a causal / part time job
Feel free to contact me with any questions.
Kind regards
Courtney

Hi my name is Matilda,
I am Australian and currently studying a Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood/Primary) at university. I am a reliable, caring and honest person who has a passion for working with and educating children. My current study ensures I have an educated background in child care and ensures I can provide the best care for your children. I have experience in Long Day Care, Preschool, Primary School and baby sitting duties. I am very easy going and enjoy everything outdoors. As I am an online student, I am flexible with hours to meet your needs. I have my own vehicle with an unrestricted license. I have a current QLD Blue Card and NSW Working With Children Check.

I am an outgoing, adventurous, positive young woman. I love doing different activities and staying fit! I love hiking, arts and crafts, camping, cleaning, going to the beach, or just relaxing in nature!
I have worked with children before and i have a strong passion for it. They are energetic and full of life just like me!
I moved from overseas a couple months ago and I am looking for a loving family to nanny for!

I have just arrive at Australia 2 months ago and I live in Coolangatta with my husband. I have Full Manual International Driver License and a Toyota Corolla.
My plan is to stay in Australia for 1 year to travel and improve my English. I love to cook and I feel comfortable dealing with kids because I used to do babysitting in Portugal and help children with homework.
I can start as soon as possible and I am available full time, part time and weekends.
Please let me know if I can help you.

I have recently moved to the Gold Coast to become a commercial pilot.
I have previous experience in babysitting and being an Au Pair (2 years +).
I also regularly babysit my three nieces, (age 7 months, 4 years, 6 years) and nephew (1.5 yrs).
I have hospitality and food experience as well as first aid training and health.

I'm a fun loving, hard working person who loves meeting people, learning new things and living life to its fullest!
I was born and raised in Melbourne before moving to Coolangatta three years ago. My parents immigrated to Australia from Poland in the 1980s, so I was fortunate to do a bit of travelling with them when I was younger, visiting family and friends overseas. When I was 13, I toured the U.S.A. with a youth performing group and when I was 15 I spent 2 months on exchange in France. Since then, I’ve camper vanned through New Zealand, backpacked through Japan and went on an European adventure which saw me getting lost in Scotland, England, Ireland, France, Switzerland and Italy.
My parents instilled a strong work ethic in me from a young age, and I always enjoyed and excelled at school. My passion for education continued beyond school and I have collected a diverse range of experiences as a nanny, teacher and mentor for young people.

To whom it may concern,
Veronica worked as a nanny for me in 2014. She proved herself to be a trustworthy and capable woman who engaged with my son in a way that was attuned to his needs. My son has Asperger’s Syndrome and Veronica brought her experience working with children with special needs into her interactions with him. She was well-versed in the supports children like my son need and implemented the strategies I recommended. He responded to her and quickly looked forward to his times with Veronica. Importantly, she also brought a sense of fun to her time with him, using music to engage his interest.
I work as a secondary teacher and more recently as a teacher educator. I spoke with Veronica about her plans to become a teacher and encouraged her to pursue these as it was clear to me that her flair for interacting with children and young people, as well as her organisation skills, would suit a career in education.
I am happy to recommend Veronica to you. I may be contacted at the details given above.
Regards,
Fleur Diamond
To whom it may concern,
Veronica worked as a member of my teaching team at Stage School Australia, and she was excellent with all of our students, helping to grow their confidence, character and skills.
Veronica is an exceptionally talented individual who creates an environment of trust and creative growth. Our students were lucky to have the opportunity to be taught by such a dedicated teacher. Even a year after she moved to Queensland, my students (and their parents) still ask me about her. I believe this is due to the fact that she created an environment in which each and every student felt valued and important.
Veronica worked with students aged 5-18, however, I believe that she was incredibly influential with our Beginners Onstage students. These students are aged 5-7 and are introduced to the foundations of performing at our school.
Veronica was in charge of teaching the skill of drama, and within this course they learn a play, which they perform on stage at our biannual concerts. Veronica was excellent at facilitating these performances, and her group were focused, precise and had lots of fun. Parents were always impressed with the improvements in their children’s confidence, speech and dramatic performance as a result of her influence.
Yours Sincerely,
Kim Bailey
Stage School Australia
